Or, is this an external wire that plugs into the line in jack on the sound card?

If it is the internal 4 pin connection, you may not need the CD cable at all.Most systems can be set to use the digital audio data from the CD drive rather than the analog audio that is on the 4 wire cable.

If you do need to plug your CD drive into the sound card, or you use the external connection, your only option is to get a different sound card that has multiple inputs.

For the external connection, you could also use an audio switch box from Radio Shack or a similar outlet.
